  Confiscation, appropriation, nationalisation; this book digs deeply into Nationalization in Modern Russia: Economic and Political ConsequencesSince 2022, Russia has seen a resurgence of nationalization policies, driven by internal political interests, economic sanctions, and the need to mobilize resources for defence and social development. Historically, Russia has led large-scale nationalization efforts, with parallels to post-revolutionary policies of the Soviet era. However, today's circumstances involve a combination of retaliatory measures against foreign sanctions and efforts to consolidate control over key industries. Key drivers include:• Retaliation against Western asset freezes.• Political influences, favouring business groups close to authorities.
  Recent practices involve forced sales of foreign-owned assets. The hundreds of cases of expropriation of foreign businesses happened in 2022-2025, including Shell (oil E&P projects in Russia), Societe Generale Bank (Russia), Raven Russia (the largest warehouses property group in Russia), Carlsberg (the largest beer producer in Russia), Danone (the largest milk products business in Russia) and other large Western companies in Russia. The number of expropriations and asset freezes without is growing, usually without clear legal grounds. The number of cases of state expropriation of businesses from Russian citizens is also growing if these citizens also hold passports of "unfriendly countries" or are residents of such countries. Large airports, chemical and metallurgical companies are examples of the nationalization of businesses owned by Russians living abroad. This study explores:• The motivations behind Russia's modern nationalization wave.• Scenarios for economic consequences and risks of expanded asset seizures.• Comparative historical examples and international precedents.• Strategies for businesses to protect assets in Russia.
  By examining both historical parallels and current trends, this work offers unique insights into how nationalization can reshape Russia’s economy and affect global business relations in the years ahead.

  How you compensate people is one of the most important strategic decisions your company will make - but few "get it right and out of sight." Nail it and you can add hundreds of percentage points to the bottom line while driving up the energy in the organization. Make the wrong call (or piecemeal the decision together), and the results will create needless drama throughout the organization. Do any of these challenges sound familiar? • "I gave a star performer a raise, and now everyone else is marching into my office, demanding one, too." • "If anyone looked closely at our payroll, it would be hard to rationalize why we're paying certain people what we do." • "I'm tired of losing our best people to the Googles of the world because we can't match their salaries."  Compensation is one of your largest expenses, one you can turn it into a strategic advantage in attracting, retaining, and motivating talent (or not accidentally demotivating them). In this highly practical book, the authors share 5 principles for designing effective compensation systems along with plenty of examples from leading small, medium, and large firms across various industries. You'll learn: 1. The #1 mistake business leaders make in setting up their compensation plans 2. The psychological aspects of compensation underpinning successful plans 3. How individual bonuses can backfire 4. The power of gamifying gains to drive up energy and engagement 5. Whether you want to be queen/king or rich!

  The Appeal to Authority Fallacy...

  Authority plays a significant role in shaping our understanding of the world, influencing decisions, and providing guidance in countless areas of life. It’s embedded in every facet of society, from the classroom to the courtroom, from the boardroom to the laboratory. At its core, authority is the power or right to give orders, make decisions, and enforce obedience. However, the nature of authority is multifaceted and often taken for granted, especially in a world where expertise is increasingly revered. 
  The concept of authority is deeply ingrained in human culture and history. From the earliest civilizations to modern-day societies, humans have sought structure and order, often relying on individuals or institutions with perceived knowledge and expertise to guide them. These figures, whether they are religious leaders, scientists, political figures, or educators, are often seen as trusted sources of truth. This trust is not just a reflection of their knowledge or expertise but also a product of social conditioning. In many cultures, authority is linked to the idea of legitimacy, with authority figures perceived as credible due to their position, reputation, or experience. 
  Yet, this reliance on authority can also be a double-edged sword. While authority figures often provide valuable insights and direction, they are not infallible. The human tendency to defer to authority can sometimes lead us to accept claims or decisions without questioning their validity. This uncritical acceptance, while often harmless, can lead to significant errors, as seen in the history of science, medicine, politics, and more. Blind trust in authority can stifle innovation, suppress dissent, and allow misinformation to spread unchecked.

  Confronting Capitalism - How the...

  Why is our society so unequal? Why, despite their small numbers, do the rich dominate policy and politics even in democratic countries? Why is it so difficult for working people to organize around common interests? How do we begin to build a more equal and democratic society? 
   
   
   
  Vivek Chibber provides a clear and accessible map of how capitalism works, how it limits the power of working and oppressed people, and how to overcome those limits. The capitalist economy generates incredible wealth but also injustice. Those who own the factories, hotels, and farms always have an advantage over the people who rely on that ownership class for their livelihoods. This inequality in power and income is reflected in the operation of the state, where capitalists are able to exert their will even under relatively democratic conditions. The most important reason is that states depend on the employment and profits from capitalist enterprise for both finances and legitimacy. Every meaningful victory for working people has been won through collective struggle but collective action is very difficult to coordinate. In the final section of the book, Chibber walks the listener through some of the historical attempts to build socialism and presents a vision of how we might, perhaps against the odds, build a socialist future.
